It seems to me that different doctors work very differently. I'm in the process of filling out literally dozens of pages of forms for my doctor. Other doctors that I spoke to didn't want anything. The one thing I'm pretty sure about is that if a doctor wants you to bring something, she'll say so.

Good luck!

My doctor gave me some papers to fill out on 'symptoms' since childhood. I'd bring a list even if you might not need it.
